| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Sep 8, 2007 Pours and dark amber with very little head. Nose is bland and barely there. Flavor is some what sweet with a slight hop edge - though uninspiring. Mouthfeel is pretty good with a slight froth to it. For some people I know this is a popular session beer, but this might be the last time I down it. No real redeeming qualities.

| 1.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 6/20 | Sep 4, 2007 Poured a rich burnt copper with not much head. The nose was of caramel malt and yeast. The taste started with roasted malt and a bit of corn. The finish was metalic with very little hop bitterness. This doesn’t taste like a bock. It tastes more like Budweiser with a brown crayon in it. Don’t bother. Headbanger (1581), Aurora, Illinois, USA
| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 7/20 | Sep 3, 2007 12oz bottle-A medium amber body with a small ring for a head that dissipates into nothing. Aroma of malt and slight hops. Taste of sweetness, malt, and nothing on the back end. I’ve never been impressed with this beer so I never understood the hype or non hype.

I will always have a fondness for this beer as, due to the obnoxious distribution laws in my state of Kentucky, you couldn’t buy Shiner anywhere in the state until recently.
Thus, as Coors used to be back in the Smokey and the Bandit days, not being able to buy Shiner made it that much more desirable.
Smooth dark lager with no bitterness. Quaffable in large quantities. Choos (504), Taylors Hill, Australia
| 1.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 1/10 | 3/5 | 1/10 | 2/5 | 5/20 | Sep 3, 2007 Aroma: this actually smelled like socks to me. Appearance: reddish and clear I don’t remember there being a head but... Flavour: undrinkable to me, quite dirty something akin to the aroma. My rating for this was done a long time ago and I just found my notes but the taste remains with me. geezerbeer (3), USA does not count | 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 2, 2007 poured from a twistoff 12oz bottle. nice deep amber color, clear .looks better than it tastes but certainly not bad, a smooth lager. An oddly familiar high school flavor. Probably good on a hot summers day, blah blah blah. keith0718 (159), Olathe, Kansas, USA
| 1.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 2/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 5/20 | Sep 2, 2007 Someone told me this was a decent beer. I disagree. I’ve had worse, but this is barely above BudCoorsMiller.
